Episode 8: Creatine for Firefighters with Dr. Scott Forbes

In this episode, we dive deep into creatine research. My good friend and brainiac, Scott Forbes, PhD tells the world about all the juicy details on this super supplement.

Dr. Scott Forbes’ primary interest is in sport science and has focused on various nutritional and training interventions to enhance athlete performance. In addition, he has expertise in examining nutritional and exercise interventions for optimal muscle and brain health in older adults.

He has worked as a personal trainer as well as an athlete consultant for several professional and varsity level sports teams. Forbes is a preeminent expert in the field of creatine research and lectures internationally on the topic. Scott is an associate professor at Brandon University in Canada.

So what, now what?

There aren’t a lot of supplements that have efficacy, safety, and cost effectiveness, but creatine is certainly one of them. It’s arguably the most widely researched sport supplement on the planet and can not only benefit our muscles, but our bones and brain as well. For firefighter health and wellness, it’s truly a no brainer!
